I''ve just discovered that I do not have access to the remote gateways for a set of IPsec tunnels to remote networks. This prevents me from changing the routing table on those gateways. I need "roadwarrior" systems connecting to me local network using OpenVPN (tun) to be able to access those systems. Since the remote gateways don''t know about 10.100.1.0/24, where my

Hello, i have got a problem with the configuration of an roadwarrior ipsec VPN tunnel with shorewall 2.2.3. I read the Shorewall Kernel 2.6 IPSEC and folowed the instructions to that point where to modify the hosts with the folowing parameters: vpn eth0:0.0.0.0/0 ipsec But i have got an entry like net eth0:0.0.0.0/0 even in the same file: If i

Hi all I have succesfully set up PPTP VPN access to my company using PoPToP/pppd (thank you Tom for excellent documentation), everything works fine so far. Problem is security. As I understand it, since PPTP ports trough tunnel are opened to whole Internet (have to be), access verification is now based only on username/password combination. Can level of security be raised with MAC verification?

I have problems connecting IPSEC VPN clients on the masqueraded network to outside VPN servers. It looks like this: ipsec-user | 192.168.1.10 (DHCP assigned) | | 192.168.1.1 fw-1 (shorewall, Linux 2.6) | 20.20.20.20 (internet) | 30.30.30.30 fw-2 (IPSEC VPN endpoint) | 192.168.100.1 | | 192.168.100.2 server ipsec-user (a road warrior) is supposed to create an IPSEC tunnel to his home

Hi Tom, How are u? hehehe I have a question. I have 2 pc with redhat 9.0 configured with ipsec freeswan 1.99 (vpn) and i have to tranfer file from one to the othert one. I see that ftp tranfer have a throughtput is the double than a netbios tranfer... why??? I supposed the problem is the TOS.(/etc/shorewall/tos) and i modified the file like ftp... in this method. #SOURCE DEST

While I have concentrated on support for 2.6 native IPSEC in release 2.2.0, I am still of the opinion that unless you absolutely need IPSEC compatibility that OpenVPN is a much easier (and in the case of roadwarriors, a much better) solution. Having already generated all of the required X.509 certificates, it took me less than 1/2 hr to replace my IPSEC testbed with an OpenVPN one using the new

Hi All, Just joined the list to try and solve a problem. To show that I''ve read the rules I''ll start with the requested info os linux kernel-2.4.27 with latest netfilter pom for gre and pptp conntrack etc iptables is 1.3.0 - downloaded and compiled with the pom stuff and the 2.4.27 kernel shorewall version shorewall-2.2.1-2 from rpm ip addr show [root@squid3 root]# ip addr

Hello everyone, I''m not sure whether to place my question here or in the racoon mailing list or even in that of iptables. I have created an ipsec connection with racoon in tunnel mode to another gateway to connect one subnet on each side to each other. This works fine. Only the ipsec gateway itself can''t send packages to the opposite subnet. Shorewall is configured according

I am trying shorewall as my previous post With alisias on eth1 loc and 4 pptp client vpns. The odd thing is when I enter one of the vpns in interfaces such as vpn1 it works. But if I enter the vpn in the hosts file shorewall blocks the vpns. shorewall/hosts #ZONE HOST(S) OPTIONS loc eth1:192.168.25.0/24 loctw eth1:192.168.50.0/24 locsa eth1:192.168.75.0/24 vpntw

Hello, I have a linux system running with 1 nic. (just local LAN) A Fritzbox is the DSL router, because of services of the Fritzbox (voip etc) I have to use the Fritzbox as the DSL router. Now I want to use the linux system as a VPN router so other devices on the local lan can use that VPN connection. I have setup shorewall but I cannot get it to work. I have monitored the traffic with

We''ve just upgraded to a new firewall machine, and a new version of Shorewall. We''re now on 2.04; previous version was 1.3.9b (!). So I''m pretty sure whatever problems we''re having are related to the big version jump. We''re using config files that exactly match our old (working) configuration (IOW, these are things which _were_ working on the old

Hello List, I tried to set up openvpn with the shorewall on my openwrt box but failed! I am not able to access the "loc"al Network from my vpn. I followed the roadwarrior setup. I define a vpn zone, that should be able to access the firewall and the local network: vpn fw ACCEPT info fw loc ACCEPT info vpn

Tom, After reading your latest postings, I am correct in understanding that, even with the netfilter-ipsec and policy patches in kernel 2.6, I still would not be able to connect more that one roadwarrior at a time? Mitch

I have a firewall running Shorewall 1.3.13-1 from rpm on a redhat 7.3 box. The box has three nics assigned to zones loc net and dmz. We also have multiple vpn links accomplished via ssh tunnels, These links all come from dynamic IP addresses with known private subnets behind them. There are basically two types of networks these vpns connect, one with access to almost everything and one with

Hi, I have a setup problem with Shorewall 4.0.6, which I can''t figure out why it is not working: I want to install a fireall with 2 extra interfaces : - My serv ("dmz") zone is a /28 subnet behind eth1, with a small number of SUN servers (IPs between ABC.DEF.75.1 and .13), one of which is a DHCP server for the 75 subnet. - The loc zone are PCs in the 75 subnet behind eth2

We had a running ipsec shorewall system to all of our remote offices. We added a dmz to the firewall and implemented proxy arp for that dmz. We have checked everything two or three times and cannot figure out why the vpns will no longer come up. We are using shorewall version 2.2.3 from the debian stable sarge distribution. We noticed the errata that for 2.0.0 there was a problem with proxy
